When using the Cordless Jigsaw, always maintain a firm grip on the tool with both hands. Never put your hands or feet in the sanding area. Do not grasp the tool or place your hands too close to the blade. Keep your hands well away from the sanding disk. Never reach underneath the tool while the sanding disk is in motion. Do not use your legs or feet to stabilize the work piece.

Position yourself to avoid being caught between the tool or side handle and walls or posts. Should the socket or bit become bound in the work, the reac- tion torque of the tool could crush your hand or leg.

Always hold the tool by its insulated gripping surfaces when cutting in areas that may contain hidden live wiring. If the blade makes contact with a live wire, the metal parts of this tool may conduct enough electricity to seriously shock the user. Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator. Do not cut or break into existing walls or other blind areas where electrical wiring may exist. If this situation is unavoidable, disconnect

allfuses or circuit breakers feeding this worksite.

Do not run the Cordless Jigsaw while carrying it at your side. A moving blade

could become entangled with clothing and injury may result.

Disconnect the battery pack from tool and place the switch in the locked or “OFF” position before making any assembly adjustments, changing acces- sories, performing any inspection, maintenance or cleaning procedures. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.

Do not use the Cordless Jigsaw if it has been damaged, left outdoors in the rain, snow, wet or damp environments, or immersed in liquid.

Do not use dull or damaged blades.

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

When restarting a saw in the workpiece, check that teeth are not engaged in the material.

Keep the handle of the Cordless Jigsaw dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.

Be extra careful when cutting in high or hard-to-reach locations. Be on the

lookout for hidden wires and falling debris.

Maintain labels and nameplates on the Cordless Jigsaw. These carry impor- tant information. If unreadable or missing, contact Alltrade for a replacement.
